According to a Thursday Wall Street Journal report, Special Counsel Robert Mueller has been using a federal grand jury to assist his investigation into alleged Russian election interference.
The report claims the grand jury has been in operation in Washington, DC for several weeks, although it does not provide a source for this information. As the article acknowledges, grand jury proceedings are typically sealed and participation is kept secret.
The grand jury discussed is a different one from the Alexandria, Virginia one impaneled to investigate former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn earlier this year.
The exact targets of Mueller’s Russia grand jury were not clear from the Journal’s report but Reuters followed up the report with an afternoon tweet claiming subpoenas were issued relating to Donald Trump Jr.’s meetings with a Russian attorney last year. That meeting and the emails relating to it were the topic of wide media focus last month.

we plowed this field in public a few weeks ago. i am wondering if manafort will be the victim. they have to slay someone for they won’t stop until they have something going by past experience. we really should have outlawed this system after Scooter Libby.
Mueller, in search of a crime, creates a crime to implicate POTUS DJT son, DJT JR, of a crime.
I’d President Trump doesn’t shut this bs down now, it’ll be his fault when he’s forced out of office. What’s afoot is all too obvious and it’s definitely not benign
The democrats answer to the improving economy and more jobs for the people - try and remove the people who are bringing the improvements. Democrats don’t want the economy to improve - the party of poverty and scarcity.
“we plowed this field in public a few weeks ago”
Maybe, but here is WSJ article just two days ago discussing it.
Nothing illegal happened.
It was a meeting between two private citizens.
Good luck to Robert Mueller to find anything incriminating.
And we still have the First Amendment and freedom of association in this country.
Mueller and Co. will NOT rest until they have ALL of TRUMP’s family and associates in PRISON!!! THANK YOU, JEFF SESSIONS, you IDIOT!!!
“Democrats don’t want the economy to improve - the party of poverty and scarcity.”
You forgot “corruption.”
I hope Jr.’s lawyers fight back on this
Man... haven’t you heard that a Grand Jury can INDICT a HAM SANDWICH@!! The Blacks and Lefties in DC can TASTE PRISON for ANY TRUMPS!!!
AGREED
2/3 of the country is behind him on this.
he should act now
>> THANK YOU, JEFF SESSIONS, you IDIOT!!

...and repulsive traitor.
I bet it was an Obama inspired set-up.
Jay Sekulow says this is no big deal. Said there are several grand juries empanelled at all times. However, I I was Trump I’d pardon my family, including second cousins, and every person I’ve known since kindergarten.
They’ll try a Tom DeLay
What’s beyond the pale is that Hillary etc. have no worries.I’d have thought she’d be hiding hoping we’d forget her and her crimes but no...she’s starting a “resistance” PAC. Probably she can’t resist the thought that she might skim money from it...but still..why didn’t she move to Ecuador or something?
But here is Don Jr...who did nothing wrong who was likely set up for a stupid meeting that went nowhere anyway...and he’s the subject of a grand jury investigation?
I cannot believe how IN OUR FACES this corruption is. They have no fear...and I blame the GOP for that. They’re in on it.
It’s probably a good idea to disregard any reports about these alleged grand jury proceedings unless a published report names a specific person who has received a subpoena — and then that person actually confirms it.
I an afraid you are right. President Trump is destroying himself by thinking he will come out clean. Clean is no such thing with an out of control Grand Jury. And he just doesn't get it that the Grand Jury is made up of communists liberals that hate him. Same as the Special Counsel.
Losing much faith in President Trump since he seems not to be good at protecting himself.
It just means that Mueller still has nothing if he goes after a twenty minute meeting involving quite a number of people. One does not engage in critical collusion with that many strangers in the room.
